I am professor of the history of business and work and Head of the Management Research Centre at the University of Wolverhampton Business School (UWBS). Prior to joining UWBS, I held tenured posts at the Universities of Stirling and Strathclyde, and at the Centre for Business in Society (Coventry University).
